1 7 Lens Shading Correction for Dirt Detection Chih-Wei Chen 1 and Chiou-Shann Fuh 1 Abstract We present a novel inspection framework to detect dirt and blemish in production line of optical fabrication automatically. To detect dirt defect from vignette surface, we use B-Spline to generate an ideal vignette surface and subtract the contaminated surface from the generated vignette surface to locate the defect. Besides, we apply some image processing methods to optimize our inspection framework. Experimental results show the effectiveness and robustness of the proposed approach regarding dirt detection in automatic optical inspection. 7.1 Introduction There are recently been massive growth in the application of camera module. The following Sections and describe the concept of image-based biometrics and illustrate some practical issues of camera module respectively Biometrics In recent years there has been renewal of interest in the application of biometrics. Although there are some privacy issues, the potential application of biometrics are still immense. In biometrics, the physiological biometric characteristic includes iris recognition [1 4], fingerprint [5 7], facial recognition [8 10], retina [11, 12] and so on. The biometrics features can be extracted in various ways. Some of the biometrics data are stored as image format for the purpose of post processing. The iris image [4] shows in Fig. 7.1(a) is shoot in visible wavelength environment. Fig. 7.1(b) to 1(d) are fingerprint image [13], diagram of facial recognition [9], and retinal image [14] respectively. We may need to use image sensor to obtain the desired images. Therefore, the quality of image directly affects to the accuracy of the post processing of biometrics. Fig. 7.2 shows the comparison between favorable image and blemished image. Generally, we cannot just apply image de-noise approach to reduce the effect of small blemish on input image because the area of blemish is unpredictable. In this paper, we introduce a framework to detect the defect 1 Department of Computer Science and Information Engineering, Taiwan University, Taipei 106, Taiwan, Chain. {d95013, fuh}@csie.ntu.edu.tw.

3 7.1 Introduction 173 because the related devices are obtainable and inexpensive. There are some practical issues should be dealed with before applying camera module over biometrics. This section will briefly introduce camera module and illustrate the issues caused by blemish. Recently, the application of camera module becomes more widespread. To provide more portability and feasibility of application, the developing trend of camera module is manufactured toward small dimension and low cost. The conventional approaches to achieve the above mentioned object is to use fewer optical lenses to lower camera module dimension and substitute plastic material for glass material to decrease cost. Unfortunately, when we use fewer optical lenses, some aberration effects become conspicuous. One of the effects shown in Fig. 7.3 is called lens shading. Lens shading phenomenon is introduced in Section Simultaneously, dirt and blemish detection is needed in production line during camera module fabrication. The red circle in Fig. 7.4 shows contaminated region. Fig. 7.3 The vignette effect shows up while shooting the Kodak Gray Card. Occasionally, the difference between defect and vignette of lens shading is not conspicuous. It is difficult to perceive even through manual verification. Fig. 7.5 gives an example of inconspicuous defect; the dirt region in red circle is similar to the background. In this article, we propose a systematic framework to achieve the objective of automatic optical dirt detection. The remainder of this paper is organized as follows. In Section 7.2, we introduce some background knowledge of our proposed framework. Section 7.3 presents our system framework and describes the framework step-by-step. In Section 7.4, the realistic defect image and experimental results are presented. Finally, the conclusion is drawninsection7.5.

Fig. 7.5 Lens shading image with inconspicuous contaminated region. 7.2 Background Background knowledge include lens shading phenomenon and color filter array is introduced in Section and Section respectively. By integrating a series of techniques into our proposed framework, the following Sections to show how it is possible to overcome the limitations of each individual processing step.
5 7.2 Background Lens Shading Phenomenon The phenomenon of lens shading is the reduction in light falling on the image sensor away from the center of the optical axis caused by physical obstructions. Fig. 7.3 shows a phenomenon of lens shading while we shoot the Kodak Gray Card. In general, the vignette effect of lens shading may be asymmetric. The effect of relative illumination can be calibrated by well optical design. But it becomes a challenge to calibrate vignette effect without increasing the dimension of optical design. There are many patents proposed to correct the shading effect by image post-processing. X. Y. Wang et al. proposed a lens shading correction approach by using B-spline curve fitting [15]. In their patent, the inventors reveal that the feasibility of conventional symmetric method for lens shading correction was limited by optical alignment and radial symmetry. Furthermore, the inventors also indicate that the twodirection multiplication method often inadequately corrects the shading effect. In this research, we apply B-spline curve to simulate the shading surface. The operating process is presented in Section Color Filter Array In photography, since the typical image sensors cannot distinguish specific wavelength, color filter arrays are needed [16]. Commonly, color filter arrays have been placed above the image sensor. Fig. 7.6 shows the diagram of the assembling organization about microlens, color filter array, and image sensor. Fig. 7.6 This schematic diagram illustrates the relation between color filter array and image sensor. There are many different types of color filter arrays proposed. Fig. 7.7 shows some types of color filter arrays. In this research, we use conventional RGB (Red, Green, Blue) images as input data. The conventional RGB image is demosaiced from raw image by using the color interpolation algorithm [17]. The color filter array of the input images in this article is Bayer filter. By observation, the green channel has occupied fifty percent of the whole image; the red channel and blue channel have occupied twenty five percent respectively. In other words, the green channel has higher chance to collect the integral information from real
6 176 7 Lens Shading Correction for Dirt Detection scene. Therefore, we only use the green channel in each input image to save computation cost. Fig. 7.7 Various types of color filter arrays. (a) Bayer filter. (b) RGBE (Red, Green, Blue, Emerald) filter. (c) RGBW (Red, Green, Blue, White) filter. (d) CYYM (Cyan, Yellow, Yellow, Magenta) filter Image De-Noise After taking green channel of input image, the next step is to lower this image s noise. In this research, the objective of noise reduction is to make the sampling point (control point) in B-Spline more generalized. Many of noise reduction approaches have been proposed to decrease the defect (or distortion data) from given image without affecting the image detail. For instance, A. Buades et al. proposed non-local means algorithm [18]; C. Tomasi et al. proposed bilateral filter approach [19]; and so on. By observation, the noise patterns shown in images can be effectively reduced by using conventional 9 9 pixels median filter. The following figures show the result of noise reduction after applying the 9 9 pixels median filter. Although the visual difference is slight, the process of image de-noise is indispensable for the following processes. Fig. 7.9 shows the result of Sobel edge detection in Fig After image de-noising, the intensity variation in Fig. 7.9(b) becomes stable and more suitable for the sampling control point of the B-Spline algorithm.

(b) Result of Sobel filtering the image in Fig. 7.8(b) Histogram Equalization To enhance the contrast of whole image, we apply histogram equalization to make the slight variance of given image prominent. For discrete application, the probability of occurrence of intensity r k in an image can be denoted by [20] p r (r k )= n k, k =0, 1, 2,...,L 1, n where n k means the total pixels of specific intensity r k ; n means total pixels of whole image; and L means the number of intensity gray levels in the image (L = 256 for 8 bit/pixel image). Let r means the normalized gray level (from [0, 255] to [0, 1]), Fig shows the concept of histogram equalization. Fig Concept of transformation from gray level r to level s. The transformation function of histogram equalization can be defined by s k = T (r k )= k p r (r j )= j=0 k j=0 n j, k =0, 1, 2,...,L 1. n And, the inverse transformation from s back to r is defined by: r k = T 1 (s k ), k =0, 1, 2,...,L 1. Fig shows the effect of the image enhancement by histogram equalization.
8 178 7 Lens Shading Correction for Dirt Detection Fig (a) An image with slight variance of intensity. (b) Result of histogram equalization in (a). Note: The bright spot at the lower right corner is emphasized. By observing Fig. 7.11(b), a bright spot appears at the lower right corner of the image. Besides, there are many sparse spots spread in the image. To increase the accuracy of our blemish detection, we apply morphological image processing to decrease the effect of those sparse spots Morphological Operation The theory of morphology is based on set theory [20], and can be applied to achieve many image processing techniques. For instance, image component extracting, image thinning, image pruning, and so on. In this research, we use mathematical morphological opening to lower the sparse spots mentioned in Fig. 7.11(b). Opening can be denoted by A B =(A B) B, where A B means the opening operation of set A by B; means the erosion operation; and means the dilation operation. We use the following rule to implement erosion during realistic implementation: I(x, y) =argmini(x + x,y+ y ), where I(x, y) means the intensity after erosion at position (x, y). By using 3 3 pixels square structuring element, we select the minimum intensity from current position (x, y) and its eight neighboring pixels, denoted by (x,y ), as current intensity. Similarly, we use the following rule to implement dilation during implementation: I(x, y) = arg maxi(x + x,y+ y ). We select the maximum intensity from position (x, y) and its eight neighboring pixels as current intensity. The structuring element is fixed in this
9 7.2 Background 179 article; we apply 3 times of erosion before 3 times of dilation to achieve preferable result. Fig. 7.13(b) shows the result of opening operation in the Fig. 7.12(a). Fig (a) An image with many sparse spots. (b) Result of morphological operation based on 3 times of erosion operation and 3 times of dilation operation. The iteration of erosion and dilation can be modified to suit the requirement of specific inspection B-Spline The B-Spline curve is proposed by Isaac Jacob Schoenberg in 1946 [21 24]. B-Spline curve is a generalization of the Bézier curve, and can be applied to many fields, such as, computer-aid design, computer graphics, engineering mechanics, and so on [25, 21, 23]. We fit the lens shading image by using the B-Spline curve, because the B- Spline curve can avoid the Runge phenomenon. In this article, we implement the uniform quadratic B-Spline to generate the ideal vignette surface. The uniform quadratic B-Spline is denoted by [24] S i (t) =[t 2 t 1] [ ][ ] pi 1 p i, p i+1 for t [0, 1],i=1, 2,...,m 2, where p i 1, p i,andp i+1 mean the set of control points; S i means the ith B- Spline segment. The detail of the generated surface depends on the number of sampling control points. The more control points we sample, the more exquisite surface we get. We use vertical control points to generate vertical B-Spline. Then, we apply the generated vertical B-Spline to generate whole vignette surface. The diagram of vertical B-Spline generation is shown in Fig
10 180 7 Lens Shading Correction for Dirt Detection Fig The diagram is a concept of vertical B-Spline generation using 13 control points. After vertical B-Spline generation, we can use them to generate horizontal B-Spline. In this article, we extract 31 control points in each vertical sample, and 31 control points in each horizontal sample. Thus, the total number of control points is 961 (=31 31). Fig. 7.14(b) shows the result of B-Spline generated surface in Fig. 7.14(a). Fig (a) The given image. (b) Result of generated B-Spline surface in (a). 7.3 Our Proposed Method To detect dirt from vignette image, we use the backgrounds mentioned in Section 7.2. Our proposed framework is shown in Fig We use the green channel of the input image to lower the issues caused by image demosaicing process. To generate an appropriate B-Spline surface, we have to moderate the intensity variation in the extracted green channel

13 7.3 Our Proposed Method 183 Fig Compare the same image line between the given image and the smoothed image. (a) Image without de-noised process. (b) Result of 9 9 pixels median filter process in (a). After image de-noise, we extract M pixels intensities as control points from N vertical sampling. Fig shows the concept of the above mentioned sampling process; red points in Fig are sampled control points. Fig The red points in this image are sampled control points. In this diagram, we extract 6 pixels (M=6) from each sampled column, and 6 columns (N=6) from the whole image. Then, we use the M N control points to first generate vertical direction B-Spline curves. The hollow blue rectangles shown in Fig are the required B-Spline curves, and the solid rectangles shown in Fig are the generated B-Spline curves. Finally, we generate horizontal B-Spline curves to complete whole B-Spline surface by using existing vertical B-Spline information. The hollow green rectangle shown in Fig is one of the required horizontal B-Spline curves, and the blue parts inside green rectangle are control
14 184 7 Lens Shading Correction for Dirt Detection points. The above mentioned B-Spline curve generation can be accelerated by using parallel computation. Fig The hollow blue rectangles are the required B-Spline curves. Fig The solid blue rectangles are the generated B-Spline curves from Fig. 7.19, and the hollow green rectangle is one of the required B-Spline curves. We can use blue parts inside the green rectangle as control points to compute its B-Spline curve. Fig. 7.21(b) shows the performance of the generated B-Spline curve, and Fig. 7.22(b) shows the performance of the generated B-Spline surface.
15 7.3 Our Proposed Method 185 Fig Compare the same image line between the de-noising image and the generated B-Spline surface. (a) This curve shows the intensity variation of the denoising image. (b) This curve means the generated B-Spline image.
16 186 7 Lens Shading Correction for Dirt Detection Fig (a) Scalar image of de-noised image. (b) Scalar image of generated B-Spline surface. Next, we subtract the generated B-Spline surface from de-noised image to compute image difference. Fig shows the result of image difference. To prevent the intensity variation of image difference from over-smoothing, we apply histogram equalization to enhance the result of image difference. Unfortunately, some conspicuous perturbations in input image may be enhanced simultaneously. To lower the effect of the perturbations of input image, we use morphological operation to remove small isolated areas. Here, we use 3 3 pixels structuring element mentioned in Section to process 3 times of erosion before 3 times of dilation to achieve preferable result. After the morphological opening, most of small isolated areas caused by conspicuous perturbations have been removed. To preserve the flexibility of application, we add an area threshold function as the final step. The objective of area threshold function is to fill the area whose pixel number is larger than or equal to threshold as a specific color, and to fill the area whose pixel number is smaller than threshold as another color. Thus, the dirt detection result can be easily rechecked by user if necessary.
17 7.4 Experimental Results 187 Fig The result of image difference. We subtract the generated B-Spline surface from de-noised image to obtain this result. 7.4 Experimental Results In this article, we use real pixels inspection image as input image. The median filter kernel is set as 9 9 pixels. We use 961(= 31 31) control points to generate ideal B-Spline surface. Moreover, we apply 3 times of erosion before 3 times of dilation with 3 3 pixels structuring element mentioned in Section to achieve preferable result. Besides, we set the area threshold as 85 pixels. Here, if the area of dirt particle is larger than or equal to 85 pixels, then the dirt particle will be drawn with green color, otherwise, the dirt particle will be drawn with red color. The experimental environment is on Intel Core 2 CPU Q GHz (our program only uses single core), and 2 GB RAM. The average processing time is about 2.8 seconds without using any code optimization or hardware acceleration. The respective results of our proposed framework are shown in Fig to In our experiment of 13 images, we achieve 0 misdetections and 0 false alarms. A special case is shown in Fig where many noises distribute over input image. The sparse spots appear in enhanced result in Fig. 7.28(f) seriously. By using mathematic morphological opening, most of the sparse spots are removed. But, there still are some noises after opening. Therefore we apply area threshold function to emphasize the region with larger area. Users can easily distinguish the obvious or the slight defect region.

27 References Conclusions In automatic optical inspection, the technology to detect the defect parts (or interesting parts) in given image automatically is needed. In this article, we propose a novel approach to extract defect regions from lens shading image. By applying the proposed method to inspect the optical component, we can make the optical device more reliable and more accurate for its future application. Although, the proposed method in this article tends to deal with specific problem, the concept of the approach can be extended to other inspection. There still are many topics, including automatic defect detection for LCD (Liquid Crystal Display) panel surface, and so on.
